Here, the effects of two citrus viroids inoculation and six rootstocks on the vegetative growth and yield of Tahiti acid lime [Citrus latifolia (Yu.Tanaka) Tanaka] were evaluated: (i) FCAV and (ii) Rubidoux trifoliate orange [Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.], (iii) FCAV and (iv) Limeira Rangpur lime [Citrus limonia (L.) Osbeck], (v) Carrizo citrange [C. sinensis (L.) Obsbeck x Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.] and (vi) Sunki mandarin [Citrus sunki Hort. ex Tanaka]) were inoculated with the viroids mixtures [CEVd + HSVd (a non-cachexia variant) + CDVd] and [HSVd (a non-cachexia variant) + CDVd]. Non-inoculated trees of each rootstock were used as control. The experimental design was randomized blocks in a split-plot scheme with three replications and one plant per plot. The inoculation was done under field conditions using infected bud and grafting ten months after planting. From the 33 months after inoculation, both viroid mixtures reduced tree growth of all rootstocks except Sunki. Trees grafted on trifoliate oranges rootstocks were less vigorous 55 months after inoculation. From 36 to 60 months after planting, the yield of non-inoculated trees was significantly higher than inoculated ones, regardless of the rootstock. Scion trees grafted on FCAV and Limeira Rangpur lime showed higher yields. Viroids mixtures did not affect drought tolerance. Scion trees grafted on the Rangpur lime clones or Sunki mandarin showed the highest drought tolerance. In conclusion, there was no evidence of yield and drought tolerance advantage, neither production of out-of-season fruits compared to the non inoculated control in the use of the viroids mixtures evaluated for Tahiti lime plantings.

Árvores não-noculadas de cada porta-enxerto foram utilizadas como controle. As inoculações foram realizadas em condições de campo por enxertia de borbulhas, dez meses após o plantio. A partir do 33º mês após a inoculação, os dois isolados de viróides reduziram o crescimento das árvores em todos os porta-enxertos, exceto a tangerineira Sunki. As plantas enxertadas nos porta-enxertos de trifoliata foram menos vigorosas 55 meses após a inoculação. De 2004 a 2006 (36 a 60 meses após o plantio), a produção de frutos das plantas não inoculadas foi significativamente maior do que a das inoculadas. A limeira ácida Tahiti enxertada em FCAV e Limeira Cravos apresentou altos rendimentos em frutos. As misturas de isolados de viróides não tiveram efeito na tolerância à seca. Plantas sobre porta-enxerto de limoeiro Cravo ou em tangerineira Sunki apresentaram a maior tolerância à seca. Concluiu-se que não houve evidência de vantagem na produção de frutos em época normal e extemporânea e tolerância à seca no uso das misturas de viróides estudadas para plantios de lima ácida Tahiti.

To study the effects of citrus viroids inoculation on vegetative growth, yield and fruit quality of ‘Marsh Seedless’ grapefruit (Citrus paradisi Macf.) grafted on trifoliate orange [Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.], an experiment was set up in January 1991, in Bebedouro, São Paulo State, Brazil. The experimental design was randomized blocks with four treatments with two plants per plot: viroid isolates Citrus Exocortis Viroid (CEVd) + Hop stunt viroid (HSVd - CVd-II, a non cachexia variant) + Citrus III viroid (CVd-III) and Hop stunt viroid (HSVd - CVd-II, a non cachexia variant) + Citrus III viroid (CVd-III) and controls: two healthy buds (control), and no grafting (absolute control). Inoculation was done in the field, six months after planting by bud grafting. Both isolates reduced tree growth (trunk diameter, plant height, canopy diameter and volume). Trees not inoculated yielded better (average of eleven harvests) than inoculated ones but the productivity was the same after 150 months.

  • Relationship of Citrus Yield and Virus Infection in Trinidad
    Journal of Applied Horticulture, 6(2):112-115, July-December, 2004 Relationship of citrus yield and virus infection in Trinidad L. Andrewsa, R. Phelpsb and R.A.I. Brathwaitec aCaroni Research Station, Waterloo Road, Carapichaima, Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, E-mail: [email protected]; b138 Bregon Park, D’Abadie, Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, E-mail: [email protected]; cFaculty of Science and Agriculture, The University of the West Indies, St. Augustine Campus, E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract Low yield is a serious problem of citrus in Trinidad but it is not known to what extent virus/viroid diseases contribute to yield reduction. This study is an attempt to quantify both the extent of infection of major virus/viroid diseases known to exist in citrus locally and the relationship of infection level with yield. The virus and virus-like diseases assessed in surveys were citrus tristeza virus (CTV), citrus exocortis viroid (CEV) and psorosis. The study began in 1996 and was conducted on Valencia orange, Ortanique tangor and Portugal mandarin established on sour orange rootstock. Techniques used in the survey included visual assessment of symptoms and both biological and serological indexing. In 1997, Ortanique had the highest level of CTV infection of 48.8% of trees, while in the other cultivars <10% tested positive. There were significantly fewer high yielding Ortanique CTV positive trees compared to CTV negative trees (P = 0.042). Fruit count of CTV positive trees was significantly lower than CTV negative trees in Valencia 2000 (P = 0.004) and Ortanique for a cumulative period of 1998 – 2000 (P = 0.001).

The Act contains 27 Sections. In order to prevent the invasion of plant pests and diseases from outside the country, a number of regulations, notifications and orders are applied to imported plants and plant products under the Plant Quarantine Act. Administrative Body of the Act The Plant Quarantine Act B.E. 2507 (1952) amended by the Plant Quarantine Act (No. 2) B.E. 2542 (1999) is administered by the Department of Agriculture, Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives. The Department of Agriculture has assigned the Plant Quarantine Sub-Division, Agricultural Regulatory Division to carry out various functions authorized by the Act. Plant Quarantine Import Requirements Under the Act, the import of plants and plant products is categorized into 3 groups namely prohibited, restricted and unprohibited materials according to their economic importance and prevalence to plant pests and diseases at their place of origin. Following are import requirements of prohibited, restricted and unprohibited materials. • Prohibited materials : The import of the following items listed in Table 1 is not allowed. Exceptions are permitted only for cases approved in advance by the Department of Agriculture for the purpose of experimentation or research only. (1) Plants and plant products designated by the Ministerial Notification, shipped from the areas specify by the Ministerial Notification.

  • THERAPY and VARIETY IMPROVEMENT the Citrus Variety
    THERAPY AND VARIETY IMPROVEMENT The Citrus Variety Improvement Program in Spain after Eleven Years L. Navarro, J. Juarez, J. A. Pina, J. F. Ballester and J. M. Arregui ABSTRACT. The Citrus Variety Improvement Program in Spain (CVIPS) started in 1975 with the following objectives: a) to recover virus-free plants by shoot-tip grafting in vitro from cultivars selected in Spain; b) to release virus-free budwood to citrus nurseries and c) to establish a germplasm bank of healthy plants. In 1983 these objectives were expanded with the importation of citrus bud- wood from other areas through a quarantine station based on tissue culture in vitro techniques. Sixty- three species and varieties have been introduced through this quarantine station so far. Presently the CVIPS has 267 accessions and 112 have been freed of virus and virus-like diseases and are available to citrus nurseries. So far, over 12 million healthy trees from the CVIPS have been planted in commercial orchards. Index words. shoot-tip grafting in vitro, quarantine, viruses, indexing.
